Puerto Rico · La Parguera / southwest
Snook are in the mix — the village run is legal; the trees want current.
Southwest mangrove cays and the drop to the Caribbean. Snook and tarpon in the trees, reef and blue water a short run south. NOAA 9759110 Magueyes Island is the clock. Not San Juan. DNER and any reserve markers are the law.

- ⚠ Puerto Rico is DNER water, not FWC. Marine reserves (including Mosquito Bay) are not a freelance wade. Verify before you keep a fish.

This pip is that mark on this tide — not the day on the ring.

Magueyes Island
structure piling · public structure · mid
NOAA 9759110 lives here. University water. The clock, not a honey hole.
- — structure piling on a high slack tide is a workable match.

Parguera mangrove cays

Southwest trees. Snook and a baby tarpon. The village is the door. Reserve markers are the law.
- — mangrove edge on a high slack tide is a secondary match.

When
When is moving water in a good hour — not the day. First light and last light are named when the clock is the story. Today’s ring mixes the best mark, the lead fish, and the best window, then taxes the sky. A strong incoming can sit under a weak day if the wind or the fish is off. Calendar cells are a third recipe: range, moon, and the day’s forecast.

Why — and who
- — Tide is high slack from NOAA 9759110 Magueyes Island.
- — Last quarter moon — neap tide range. Marsh and passes usually want the extra current of a spring.
